I was referring to just a plain trigger lock that would clamp on the trigger guard, not the inter-lock.

But why would drilling the tumbler out of a trigger lock make a hole in the side of the frame there?

I don't know, shape of the lock, makes more sense than trying to convert it to full auto or for a mag release.
